Carl: Morning, Andy. How do you like the party last night?
Andy: Great. I really 【1】 (enjoy) myself there. It is a few years 【2】 I had such a good time. And you will never guess whom I met there. 【3】 was Keyeast.
Carl: You 【4】 be kidding me. You mean you met Keyeast, 【5】 one ever 【6】 (act) Du Minjun. Oh, no. I can't believe it. If I hadn't been so busy with my work last night, I must have met my idol. I couldn't be 【7】 (regretful) now.
Andy: Hey! Cheer 【8】 . He hasn't left Anyang yet. In addition, he mentioned that he was likely to attend the charity party 【9】 (hold) by our university next evening.
Carl: Wonderful! I couldn't wait to see him. He is the most handsome "god" I have ever seen. And you will go there with me then, won't you?
Andy:Why not? He is my idol, too. By the way, don't forget to take your camera, for you would never like to miss the chance to take 【10】 with him.

【答案】
【1】enjoyed
【2】since
【3】It
【4】must
【5】the
【6】acting
【7】more regretful
【8】up
【9】to be held
【10】photos/a photo
【解析】
【1】enjoyed 考察时态。根据上文的对话中last night昨晚可得知时态为一般过去式,故将enjoy后加上-ed。该句意思为:我过得很高兴。
【2】since 考察时间状语从句。since引导的时间状语从句常用完成时态。Since这里的意思是“自从”。该句意思为:好久没有这么享受了。
【3】 It考察代词。这里的it代指前一句里面的whom。在这一句里面做主语。该句意思为:你不会猜到我在这里遇见了谁,我遇见了Keyeast.
【4】 must 考察推测的语气。根据后文的I can't believe it可知Carl不相信Andy说的话,所以该空的意思为你一定在开玩笑,must be表示肯定猜测。该句意思为:你一点在开玩笑。
【5】the 考察代词。The one是特指某一个人。该句意思为:你说你见到了keyeast,那个饰演了duminjun的人?
【6】acting考察非谓语动词。该句You mean you met Keyeast, one ever (act) Du Minjun. 两个半句之间没有关系词,所以该句后半句是keyeast的定语。Keyeast 扮演这个角色是主动的所以用现在分词 acting。该句意思为:你说你见到了keyeast,那个饰演了duminjun的人?
【7】more regretful 考察句意。结合语境carl因为工作没有见到自己的偶像,所以他很后悔。 couldn't be more regretful强调程度,该句意思为:我现在后悔的不能更后悔了。
【8】up 考察固定短语。Cheer up通常用于鼓励他人,意思为:高兴点、打起精神来。
【9】to be held 考察被动语态。结合语境这里是动词不定式的被动语态,所以用to be held。该句意思为:他提过他可能参加明晚我们大学举办的慈善晚会。
【10】photos/a photo考察单词填空。因为对方是自己的偶像,所以自然是想和他合影。Take a photo with somebody与某人合照。该句意思为:因为你也不想错过与他合影的机会。

Simon Sinek is naturally shy and doesn’t like speaking to crowds. At parties, he says he hides alone in the corner or doesn’t even show up in the first place. He prefers the latter. Yet, with some 22 million video views under his belt, the optimistic ethnographer also happens to be the third most-watched TED Talks presenter of all time.
Sinek’s unlikely success as both an inspirational speaker and a bestselling author isn’t just dumb luck. It’s the result of fears faced and erased, trial and error and tireless practice, on and off stage. Here are his secrets for delivering speeches that inspire, inform and entertain.
Don’t talk right away.
Sinek says you should never talk as you walk out on stage. “A lot of people start talking right away, and it’s out of nerves,” Sinek says. “That communicates a little bit of insecurity and fear.”
Instead, quietly walk out on stage. Then take a deep breath, find your place, wait a few seconds and begin. “I know it sounds long and tedious and it feels excruciatingly awkward when you do it,” Sinek says, “but it shows the audience you’re totally confident and in charge of the situation.”
Show up to give, not to take.
Often people give presentations to sell products or ideas, to get people to follow them on social media, buy their books or even just to like them. Sinek calls these kinds of speakers “takers,” and he says audiences can see through these people right away. And, when they do, they disengage.
“We are highly social animals,” says Sinek. “Even at a distance on stage, we can tell if you’re a giver or a taker, and people are more likely to trust a giver — a speaker that gives them value, that teaches them something new, that inspires them — than a taker.”
Speak unusually slowly.
When you get nervous, it’s not just your heart beat that quickens. Your words also tend to speed up. Luckily Sinek says audiences are more patient and forgiving than we know.
“They want you to succeed up there, but the more you rush, the more you turn them off,” he says. “If you just go quiet for a moment and take a long, deep breath, they’ll wait for you. It’s kind of amazing.”
Turn nervousness into excitement.
Sinek learned this trick from watching the Olympics. A few years ago he noticed that reporters interviewing Olympic athletes before and after competing were all asking the same question. “Were you nervous?” And all of the athletes gave the same answer: “No, I was excited.” These competitors were taking the body’s signs of nervousness — clammy hands, pounding heart and tense nerves — and reinterpreting them as side effects of excitement and exhilaration.
When you’re up on stage you will likely go through the same thing. That’s when Sinek says you should say to yourself out loud, “I’m not nervous, I’m excited!”
Say thank you when you’re done.
Applause is a gift, and when you receive a gift, it’s only right to express how grateful you are for it. This is why Sinek always closes out his presentations with these two simple yet powerful words: thank you.
“They gave you their time, and they’re giving you their applause.” Says Sinek. “That’s a gift, and you have to be grateful.”
